While the 2019 Subaru WRX STI is the cheaper model, it does this at the expense of many key features that the 2018 Volkswagen Golf R provides. You can achieve some of these by a further upgrade to the 2019 Subaru WRX STI Limited, but that ups the price significantly to a starting MSRP of $41,395. Meanwhile, the 2018 Volkswagen Golf R comes with a more friendly interior, a far superior fuel economy, and the following features:

DSG® Automatic Transmission

DCC® Adaptive Chassis Control

VW Car-Net® with App-Connect

Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers
